Undertaker, you got name also or not?

 

Hey, you guys Singaporeans or Malaysians ah? How come your bikes all got Singapore licence plate?

 

Then Undertaker, your CBR group in Malacca, they are all Singaporeans or Malaysians? And their bikes are Singapore registered also?

 

Anyway, where's a good place to paint bike?

 

I have Factory jets in my bike, put in by previous owner. Don't know the difference between the original jets and the Factory jets. But I still feel my bike not that fast lah... so maybe the Factory jets not good enough....

 

Actually, i'm biased,... cuz I'm comparing to my previous bike. I owned a Blackbird for one year before I sold it and bought the CBR900.

 

So, after riding the Blackbird, that's why I feel my CBR900 still not powerful enough.

Mark, nice knowin u...my name is Jo Han

 

My group here r all malaysians, oni my bike and another 929 is spore registered. the rest are malaysian registered bikes

 

about painting bikes, how much does it cost to do powder coating paint for a bike ? in msia it cost like RM1800 +/-

 

wat i heard about factory jets compared to dynojet is the factory has better pickup. dynojet has better mid n top end.

of course the power btw a blackbird n a blade is very different. should try taking ur blade to blast some tight corners n u will feel the difference imo

we enjoy the blade here when doing hard corners....however when cruising on the highway we did wish we have a blackbird

Mark, my name is Louis and i'm Singapore PR + Mi came from Sarawak n moment staying at Gelang Patah...

 

Yo, undertaker my road tax is $288(Expire on 17 Jan 05) n insurance is $400++ (Waiting quotation from Mitsui n NTUC)

[LouisB]

i actually looking for dynojet, if urs can fit my '94 europe spec then i will definitely consider.

[Blade900]

I just checked... mine is the RRT model.... 1996... and the engine is 919cc, not 918...

 

Not bad ah Johan... you really know your bikes...

 

Eh... my bike suddenly not so smooth already.... when I maintain throttle at any speed, the engine is not so smooth anymore... can feel the bike slightly jerking...

 

I always hate this... If you never touch your bike, sure got no problem.... but once you go to a mechanic to fix something, sure something else will spoil... for the last 9 months, I never did anything to my bike and it was smooth ( a bit raw but smooth)... now, after I serviced the carburretor,etc my wiring socket kena burn (must replace... cost $105 including labour) and my bike engine not so smooth anymore... sigh...

 

the woes of riding a second hand bike.... don't know what nonsense the other previous riders did to the bike...

 

When I sold my Blackbird, the buyer actually came back and told me that my bike was in excellent condition, just like it was brand new.... the bike was 1 year old when I sold it, but because I really took care of the bike, it was in tip top condition....

 

There was one time, I lost balance in the car park and my Blackbird was going to fall.... I used all my strength to hold it up and prevent it from touching the floor. The bike didn't suffer, but after that, I had chialat back pain... had to go to sinseh to massage.

 

One day... I will find a way to buy a new bike again.... then I can really maintain the bike in perfect condition.... but for now... must save every cent I have.... got wedding net year.... you guys sure invited one...

Here is a pic of my Blade....

there must be something wrong with ur mech lor if like dat. i never had any problems after i fix my bike with my mech. here if service carbs + vacuum tuning will oni cost RM120. guess the socket u really kena lor. i had some wiring work done including changing some sockets n it oni cost me abt RM90. was a 3 day job, very neatly done. honestly, u really need to find a damn good n dedicated mech to do the job, else ur bike will end up becoming worse n worse.

 

of cos 2nd hand bikes r bound to have some problems, the matter is whether how bad the problem is. as i said, really gotta have a good mech to solve the problems exactly, as well as need to standby some $$$

[LouisB]

Wen there at 12pm n they juz start set up the stall....n chating wif Shah from Biketech 21, he strongly recomend his 'arrow full system' but unfortunately this full system not suit to our bike...

After wen back office......

 

Mark call at 2.45pm said his area still raining...

 

Afternoon from 2pm to 4pm heavy rain.....cannot got.

 

Come back from JB to East Cost at 7pm, saw a few Biker still haging there chating n finally noe whose is our famous Moderator "Andy".....

 

Afterdat buy a pair of 'Alpenstar' hanglove at $79 ...

 

Decide to go off....suddenly saw a few blader coming over...dun noe who???

Try call Mark but can't get him....so went off home liao.

 

End Story...

[Blade900]

Louis... you called me? How come I never got your call?

 

Anyway, I went East Coast on Sunday about 5pm... Many of them were already closing. But there were still a lot of bikers around. Some were doing stunts on the YZ125...

 

Apparently, somebody told me that in the afternoon, they had lots of lucky draws. And then, all you have to do is go up to them, tell them who organised the event and they'll give you a full-face helmet free! Walau eh...

 

After that, I went to the East Coast hawker centre and paid a lot of money for really horrible food... WHAT A BUMMER!! The food there sucks! The bloody oyster omelette cost $8 and it was so little... then the Char Kuay Teow tasted like sweet black sauce rubber bands... and the Hokkien Mee tasted tasteless.... and the BBQ chicken wings were so dry.... I'm never going to eat there again... I'd rather eat sand...

 

Johan... my paintwork is original paintjob.... never resprayed before...

 

Anybody knows if you change to a bigger rear sprocket, does your chain snap a lot more? Cuz I experience a lot of chain snap since I changed my chain and sprocket... everytime I slow down (without clutch-in or changing gear), the chain will start to snap and make a lot of noise... My chain is always lubricated with chain lube so I know it's not dry...

[Blade900]

Johan... who's you mechanic?

 

Louis.. who's your mechanic?

 

Walau eh... I think I need to change mechanic boy... my mechanic always makes me feel damn scared to go to him...

 

Then..now my bike is not so smooth anymore... before I serviced, it was smoother than now...

mark, my mech is in malacca wan...too far for ur reach leh hehe...if u said after servicing ur bike become not smooth, i guess the problem should be with the carbs synchronising as well the valve clearance. should not be other problems concerning the engine.

 

btw did he service ur air filter? if got u can take out ur tank, check the filter whether if its over oiled with the filter oil. cos when i service my air filter (K&N) i will lube it n leave it abt 2 days to dry. if the thing is over oiled, it will cause ur bike to choke n spatter. then u gotta re-wash it n change ur spark plugs again.

so pls take note n be alert where u take ur bike for servicing.

 

abt ur sprocket, wat size of the rear spocket u r using? original is 43. if it snaps, should be your front spocket worn out, or the chain is adjusted way too tight or too loose.

do try to check whether the chain got freeplay or not, if its tight better get it adjusted fast. else gonna screw up ur whole chain system.
